We decided to try their baked goods and got their scout cookie and our barista convinced us to try the chocolate banana loaf Service- friendly staff. Talked with a smile and didn't mind having small talk with my wife. Plenty of seating when we came to enjoy our coffee and baked goods. I liked the scout cookie.. had chocolate and nuts. Chocolate banana loaf was okay but can't say I would get this over the cookie. Overall, we like to patronize local coffee shops so this was a plus.

I know it only take a few mins to make a matcha but she could've at least pretended to take longer at the very least. Very lazy work!!

What a cute spot with wonderful coffee!…read more The latte I got was so delicious: a large latte with vanilla cream foam and I added simple syrup to my liking after. A 10/10 from a coffee snob! Their space is also so colorful and fun, and the baristas were really kind and welcoming. A 5 star experience. If you're a visitor or local between coffee shops, go HERE.

I'm so in love with everything about Scout Coffee on Foothill Blvd in SLO! I'm actually bummed I…read moredon't live here and was just visiting. If I lived here, this would be my GO TO spot for ALL my coffee needs. The space is thoughtfully designed with many furniture pieces from repurposed goods. It is spacious with a light, bright airy feel. All the "baristas" were so welcoming and friendly. They seemed to enjoy their job and their coworkers. They set off a very cohesive vibe. I wish I could have spent the morning just being there but had to leave for a funeral. So many things caught our eye! The baked goods were devine. The T-shirts were super soft and I would have bought one of they had our sizes. The roasted coffee beans were priced fairly. I haven't even gotten to the coffee yet! There were so many iced coffee/cold brew options it was really hard to choose. We ended up selecting the Lemon Pistachio shortbread cookie, a Ginger Molasses cookie, a seasonal scone: Honey Cinnamon, an iced Latte and an iced Vanilla Bean Latte: 1/2 sweet and a bag of Classic Espresso beans. My only sadness was I should have gotten a large latte instead of a regular. We saved the desserts for after the funeral and enjoyed the yummy coffees on our way. The Ginger Molasses cookie was perfect. Moist and chewy and not too much ginger. I should have bought more! The Lemon Pistachio cookie had a lovely balance of lemon zest and fine pieces of pistachio in the cookie and a not too tart lemon glaze and pieces of pistachio on top. It wasn't dry or super dense either. Someone making these is an experienced baker! The Honey Cinnamon scone was the best scone we have ever had. It was messy but so worth it. If you want an entire coffee experience, you have to visit Scout Coffee on Foothill Blvd in SLO. You will not stop thinking about what a beautiful experience it was after you've gone.

The girl wouldn't serve me because they said we don't open until 6:30, we just have the door open for people. People? What am I? I think she meant employees... Anyways, I came back because my girl needed that Matcha (you know how it is) Ordered a LARGE iced matcha and a croissant. $10. When I was handed an Obvious medium maybe even a small arbiter shops I told them I asked for large and she looked at me like I was stupid and said "This is OUR Large". Anyways, I'm not a coffee snob I just wanted to treat my lady and I don't think I'll be coming back after this experience for the money spent. After a tip im at $12+ and feeling ripped off

A phenomenal California Burrito…read more There's dozens of dozens of dining options in downtown SLO. I looked at various menus and online reviews. Every item seemed to be priced 25-50% more than I wanted to spend. Walked past Kreuzberg and initially thought it was only coffee and pastries. The whole layout is immaculate. Outdoor seating, indoor group seating and even a few private seats in the corner that give it a VIP ambiance. Hidden inside was a narrow lounge area with turntables with a bar area at the end. A DJ was set to start at 8pm. The music genre schedule varies. I will return. The burrito was top tier. Side of chips added to the filling satisfaction. Only downside was the price but if you add the quality service, cleanliness, vibe and atmosphere...the value is there.

Very Good - But Don't Be A Lazy Customer…read more.... The Nautical Bean on Los Osos Valley Road is my go-to place for sandwiches and drinks in that part of San Luis Obispo. - Overall: 4 - Location: 5 - Exterior: 4 - Ambiance: 5 - Menu: 5 - Sandwiches: 5 - Drinks: 4 - Service: 4 - Price and Value: 5 - Parking: 5 - Bathroom: 4 Pros: - Location: Convenient to the western part of SLO. This outlet of the small chain is on Los Osos Valley Road near the corner of Madonna Road in a shopping center. - Menu: It's not just drinks. They've got a sizable menu of sandwiches...lots of pastries and the usual drinks. - Ambiance: Casual. Many tables inside and 2 patios...one in front and a smaller one in back. You'll find students on computers and friends sharing a table. Music plays in the background. - Food: Excellent. My wife and I stop by once a month before visiting a local doctor and split a sandwich for lunch since they're large enough to easily divide. My favorite is the Tuna Melt ($18). Each comes with a nice salad. For people familiar with restaurants in the San Jose area during the 1970s, 80s and 90s...the sandwiches will remind you of the Good Earth. - Drinks: From excellent to okay. Besides visiting with my wife, I also drop by before or after other doctor appointments. That's what happens as you get older! So I'm a semi regular. I usually get the same thing - A medium hot chai with no whipped cream...extra hot and extra foam. On February 25th, I had one of the very best drinks in my life. A few days later on March 2nd, it went the other way. My hopes were initially raised when a talented young woman (who might be a manager) took my order. Unfortunately, someone else made my drink. The first version had no foam...so she emptied some liquid and added foam. I got to my car, started drinking and realized it was lukewarm - not extra hot - but I was tired, probably lazy and just finished it. It wasn't even busy in the shop. - Service: Always friendly. - Price and Value: Lots of good food and drinks for a fair price. - Parking: No problem. There's a lot in the front and a big one in back. - Bathrooms: Not bad. There are 2 behind the shop - both are usually quite clean and come with a code you get from the employees. Cons: - Consistency of the drinks: This is a problem at almost every place I've tried.....except The Tribe in Arroyo Grande. Most of the drinks here are very good, but people should not be on the front line unless they know what to do. Overall, the Nautical Bean on Los Osos Valley Road makes great sandwiches, has a fine selection of pastries and does a good job with their drinks.

I came during a very busy Easter event and the staff was very tentative and on their A game given how busy they were. The vibes were amazing and this could be thanks to the Slo community. I was in town visiting but I felt very welcomed. I swear if this coffee shop was in so cal I would have expected someone to go full Karen when waiting for her coffee. I ordered the black ice tea and a cold brew coffee. I enjoyed the tea the most. The cold brew was slightly below average and tasted a bit grime. I probably ordered a less popular drink but it made my experience a 3.5 star. Lucy's coffee experience was great but the cold brew left some room for improvement. I would recommend Lucy's coffee and I plan to try some other coffee items next time. The price and value is also great.

I have been wanting to visit Breda because of the hype. I was impressed by the chocolate offerings…read more I purchased the peanut butter, Nutella, black sesame/passion fruit and orange dark chocolates. Each one was flavorful and unique. I was very happy. - I was greeted while walking in the door and served quickly. I received a branded paper bag upon purchase. I love the branding overall and the downtown location is a quick walk from the Mission. - The furniture and place settings are perfect for the theme. However, I felt a bit lost when looking around the restaurant. The back wall is filled with fake florals and a neon sign in pink. Then, the wall by the bar features porcelain jester masks to represent Italy in red. The far wall has local art for sale. I suggest picking only one of these themes like the local artist portraits for a more focused ambiance.

We all went with the Signature Tea. It included a choice of Tea, an assortment of 5 petite sandwiches, 2 scones with jams, & 5 gourmet pastries. We ordered 4 orders of the Signature Tea, since it was meant for a pair to share. Four orders for 8.5 of us was perfect for a light lunch. Or an afternoon snack, lol. Note: It may not look like a lot, but having a whole pot of tea to yourself will definitely get you feeling full haha Everything was delicious! & super Cute! I was in love with their house made jam. I believe one of the owners came out to give me more info on the fruits used. Blueberry, Raspberry & Strawberry Jam. Yum! Definitely worth a try at Breda for a special occasion.
